السينما و سياحة الإنتحار : أساليب الترويج الفيلمي للموت المدفوع تحليل سردي لفيلمي Me Before You و Euphoria

Abstract EN

This study aims to reveal the methods used by the cinema to promote suicide tourism.

Given the importance that the tourism sector in general has attached to film promotion, and suicide tourism to fiction films, in particular.

Therefore, the current research analyzes the films Me Before You, and Euphoria in light of Hartmut Rosa's theory of resonance as well as the concept of the good life.

The results revealed that the sample of films used in the analysis serve to objectify death through the narrative and visual employment of the place, performance, and character trilogy as attractions to pass the image of accompanying suicide as a patient's last resort.

The findings also showed that the adopted film promotion methods are related to postmodern values.

In this respect, the idea of euthanasia is attached to notions of freedom, choice, individuality and independence, as a way to achieve a good life.
